I had a great time. It was a little weird and a lot funny. Who knew I could feel sorry for a fly? The audience interaction was very adeptly managed and brought an additional layer of fun to a great show. ... full review

This one-woman show was hilarious and heart-wrenching. Alice takes you along on the rollercoaster ride of her journey to conceive a child. I love how she weaves in her stand-up routines to illustrate that humor is the ultimate healing salve - even for the most painful things that happen in life. I strongly recommend you hop on this ride. And don’t forget the tissues - for tears of sorrow and of laughter. ... full review

I am an absolute sucker for puppets and was taken in from the beginning of Cirque Lunaire. It was chaotic, vulgar and dark in the best ways and reminded me of Peter Jackson's 'Meet the Feebles.'... full review

This show is as hilarious as it is heartbreaking. Yasi is magnetic, and her writing shines in this beautifully vulnerable story about obsession, insecurity & mental health struggles. The enigmatic ending left me wanting more!... full review
